Isla Holbox "In Search of The Spotted Whale Shark" Tour
Holbox Island MAY 2007 THE WHALE SHARKS ARE HERE!!!
From Early to Mid June through to the beginning of September Isla Holbox is visited by the spotted Whale Sharks. During these months, there are from Holbox Island snorkeling trips out to view these wonderful creatures. To learn more about these wonderful creatures, visit Baja Jones Adventures
You begin your Holbox Island whale shark trip with a two hour boat ride out to the viewing area during which you might be lucky to see various types of marine life such as dolphins, manta rays, different fish, turtle. Of course bird life will fly above you as the area near Isla Holbox is also an area favored by many migratory species of birds. If you are lucky to find the Whale Sharks, then two by two with your guide you will be allowed to enter the water and observe and snorkel with these massive fish. Trip departs early in the morning and is about 6 hours long. Space is limited. Reservations are a must. We offer both private tours for families and groups with a max of 7 people as well as trips in which the boat captain puts together enough folks for a trip to go, ideal if one or two people are interested but can't afford the private boat option. For the tour we recommend bringing binoculars if you have them to observe the bird life. If you prefer, feel free to bring your own snorkel, mask and fins for your comfort. Excursion is not recommended for children ages 7 and under. Remember the great fish follow their food source, the plankton. Should it be a cloudy day the the plankton is deeper in the water, that is where the sharks will be and not on the surface. Max per private boat trip is 7 people while the group tour will take a max of 10 people. While visiting Isla Holbox don't miss this season's chance to Snorkel with the Whale Shark! Contact Us NOW!!!
